Hey J0rdan, this is kinda interesting...I think I may have found the oldest grocery bag line in existence...but it's obviously where the idea in hip hop came from, but this is pretty much a Proper Grocery Bag. Doubt we'll find anything earlier than this.
punk poet John Cooper Clarke, 1979, the piece "Twat"...listen at 46/47 seconds in...

― thomp, Tuesday, 26 July 2011 16:06 (twelve years ago) link
how do you ruin shitty drake punchlines?
anyway kinda interesting as obviously no rapper has ever heard john cooper clarke, but weird when someone thought of the exact same structure totally separately that long ago...even the long pause, the whole construction is just the same.
― amada thuggindiss (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 26 July 2011 16:08 (twelve years ago) link
I could have sworn I made the John Cooper Clarke grocery bag observation once upon a time but evidently not on ILX.
I suspect if you are going down this road there's something even earlier than 1979 but that'd an excellent effort nonetheles.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 July 2011 16:20 (twelve years ago) link
i wasn't really looking, i was just listening to "me and my big mouth" this cooper clarke old vinyl comp this AM and that line jumped out at me!

I'm not sure it's quite shoehorned in enough though.

i get the feeling you're trying to make a point, so you're thinking lil' wayne and drake have heard this particular john cooper clarke song or what?

Ha at "You make life a fairytale... BEANSTALK"
I mentioned this in the Ice Cube thread, but when I saw him live a couple of weeks ago (w/ Naughty by Nature, who were kinda great!), he brought out one of his sons to rap (he goes by the name Doughboy, which is kind of weird, I think), and the kid dropped like 4 or 5 grocery bags right out of the gate. Something about "we burning trees... CHRISTMAS" or some such.
― She Got the Shakes, Tuesday, 26 July 2011 17:06 (twelve years ago) link
I like the expression "dropped grocery bags," like droppin' bags is the equivalent of droppin' bombs or droppin' science, but with words left out.
